Landslide

Esta vai muito na onda da frase da Dolly Parton, mas é um poema que se aplica à vida de tantas pessoas que me são próximas que me pareceu pertinente partilhá-la convosco. A escolha da versão das Dixie Chicks em vez do original da Stevie Nicks foi mesmo uma questão política. Ainda não me esqueci das quesílias com o Bush...

Took my love and I took it down
Climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well, the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky, what is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changing ocean tides?
Can I handle the seasons of my life?

Well, I've been afraid of changin'
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes bolder, children get older
I'm getting older too,

So take this love and take it down
Yeah, and if you climb a mountain and you turn around
And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well, the landslide brought down

And if you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well maybe
The landslide will bring you down
